Hungarians are working on the latest Range Rover!
There is no Range Rover without Hungarian contribution! The factory where the decorative elements of the latest Range Rover models are made is located in Northern Hungary.
A Hungarian company is the exclusive designer for Range Rover interior parts
Mono-Ipolyfabric Ltd. in Ipolytölgyes is the exclusive designer and manufacturer of interior decorative elements for the latest Range Rover and Range Rover SV models. The company has been operating for more than thirty years and employs hundreds of people.
Index has learned that the technology, which Mono-Ipolyfabric Ltd. has been developing for several months, is a unique way of pressing aluminium into wood. The company produces premium interior decoration elements for the interior of cars. They use natural and reclaimed wood, carbon, mesh, aluminium and a combination of these materials to meet the manufacturer’s requirements, Index reports.
They explained that for each order, they create the decorative elements individually, based on the car brand’s branding and in the way they expect. And there is no shortage of orders, with Range Rovers, Aston Martins, Lamborghinis, Mercedes, Jaguars, Audis and BMWs among the cars that have been fitted with the company’s interior design elements. Not surprisingly, 99 percent of the products manufactured in Ipolytölgyes are produced for export markets.
Development in 2021
The company invested HUF 6 billion (EUR 14 million) last year. A high-tech manufacturing plant was built at the site. On top of that, a research and development centre was established to design and develop the high-tech interior design and trim elements that will be used in cars. Thanks to this development, the company has increased its capacity by 30 percent compared to 2021. More than 200 new jobs have also been created, with over 700 employees working at Mono-Ipolyfabric Ltd., Világgazdaság reports.
This year, the Hungarian company has been granted exclusive development and production license for the interior decoration elements of the latest, fifth-generation range Rover and Range Rover SV. This means that the interior decoration of the 120,000 Range Rover models planned for sale worldwide this year will all come from Hungary!
